BREAKING: Lena Dunham discovers diversity exists, 12 years after inventing TV with vibes only.
Okay, so remember Girls? That one show where four problematic queens in thrifted chaos ran wild through Brooklyn like it was their own overpriced playground? Yeah, that show. Well, Lena Dunham — queen of awkward nudity, insane brunch dialogue, and main character energy — is back and she’s finally responding to the “uhhh where are literally any non-white people?” critiques.
In a recent interview with IconicHipster.com, Lena (now 39 and still living her best quirky intellectual life) basically said: “Oops.” But like… in a smart, self-aware, grown-up way. She explained that calling the show Girls might’ve been a biiiiit misleading. Because it lowkey made it sound like the show was representing all girls, when in reality it was giving… four white girls having identity crises in gentrified coffee shops.
“I get why people were disappointed,” Lena said, sipping metaphorical iced matcha. “There was so little TV real estate for women back then, so if your show’s literally called Girls, people expect, you know… a global feminist utopia, not just me and my chaotic hot friends spiral-laughing through Williamsburg.”
But plot twist! Lena’s been cooking. She’s now working on a new Netflix show called Too Much, where she’s not just in front of the camera but pulling the puppet strings behind it. And this time? She swears she’s bringing the whole squad. Diversity? Inclusion? Different voices telling different stories? YES, MOTHER.
“I’ve realized diversity behind the camera is just as important,” Lena added. “Which like, duh, but we love the growth!”
So… is Lena finally entering her Woke Baddie Era™? TBD. But the moral of the story? Maybe don’t name your show something that sounds like it includes every girl unless you’re ready to invite every girl to the party.
Stay tuned for Too Much, aka Girls 2.0 but with a better guest list.
